But what if there was an instant solution?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Wedding-Corsage-Held-On-By-Neodymium-Magnets-and-Steel-Discs-700x530.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1564\" style=\"width:525px;height:398px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, we\u2019d like to thank our customer Simon, from Shropshire, for sending in this inspiring magnetic solution. While the average UK wedding costs around \u00a334,000, wedding suits and dresses contribute to this significantly&nbsp;and adding a pinhole to them can be soul-destroying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simon recognized this and came up with the following magnetic solution,&nbsp; choosing to use&nbsp;small but powerful magnets to attach his and his groomsmen\u2019s corsages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here Is Our Quick Step-By-Step Guide To Applying Wedding Corsages With Magnets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1 \u2013 Acquire The&nbsp;Materials <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have your corsage and you know the weight and the stem\u2019s surface area, you can purchase your magnets and steel discs accordingly. These are the items our experts would recommend for this type of application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The magnets we recommend are<a href=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/product\/n35-neodymium-disc-magnet-5-16-in-dia-x-5-32-in-thick-324lbs-pull-19410?variant=1151\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a08mm x 4mm N35 Neodymium magnets<\/a> with a 1.47kg pull\u00a0because\u00a0they are small but mighty. Next, you need something to stick to the corsage\u2019s stem and attract to the magnet. For this, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/other-c89\/10mm-dia-x-1mm-thick-nickel-plated-mild-steel-disc-with-3m-self-adhesive-p9296#ps_1-9518\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">10mm steel disc with 3M self-adhesive<\/a>\u00a0is perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/What-you-need-to-hold-corsages-onto-wedding-dressed-and-grooms-suits-e1530101254946-768x315-1-700x287.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1561\" style=\"width:525px;height:215px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2 \u2013&nbsp;Apply The Steel Disc<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To apply the steel disc to the corsage\u2019s stem, firstly, pinpoint to the area of the stem you would like to apply the disc. We\u2019d recommend the back of the stem, right at the top!&nbsp;Once you know where to apply it, peel away the adhesive sticker on the disc and apply the sticky side to the stem, applying&nbsp;enough force for it to stick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With your steel disc in place, allow 24-32 hours for the adhesive to cure. This will ensure the disc doesn\u2019t come away from the stem when it is adjusted or knocked when you are dancing at the reception!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The image to the right shows the steel face with the adhesive stuck onto&nbsp;the stem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Steel-Disc-Applied-to-wedding-corsage-768x512-1-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1562\" style=\"width:525px;height:350px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3 \u2013 Test It!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We highly recommend testing your magnetic corsage attachment in advance of your big day; to avoid any unnecessary wedding day stress. To do this, simply take your corsage and hold it against your suit\u2019s lapel at around chest height. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once in place, apply 1 Neodymium magnet on the opposite side of the lapel, in line with the steel disc. The disc and magnet will attract to each other instantly, holding your corsage in place without the need for any holes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Apply-your-steel-disk-and-magnet-to-attach-a-wedding-corsage-768x512-1-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1563\" style=\"width:525px;height:350px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This method works the same for bridesmaids\u2019 dresses. Locate where you would like to apply the corsage, and place 1 magnet on the reverse side of the material to attract the steel disc to hold the corsage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With your corsage now in place, you are ready to take the next step and say \u2018I do!\u2019 One particular highlight of using magnets over pins is the versatility they bring, particularly at summer weddings where temperatures can sore! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you want to remove your jacket, magnets allow you to remove your corsage and attach it to your waistcoat or shirt, rather than putting another hole in another garment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Corsage-applied-to-wedding-wear-with-magnets-and-steel-discs-700x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1565\" style=\"width:525px;height:250px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So there we have it, how to apply your wedding corsage with magnets, to avoid using pins that leave holes in your wedding attire.
